This is absolutely infuriating. This sharp young Black boy, clean as ever, gets kicked out of school because he has dreads. His father rightfully struggles to maintain his emotions at the disappointment of it all.pic.twitter.com/WOpUGLqg8l

LOOK AT THIS. This is from a promo video for the Florida school that kicked a 6 year old Black boy out because “his hair was below his ears.” Looks like the white boys have hair below their ears.pic.twitter.com/N56bcVSiCh

A school who accepts and respects different cultures is equally important to the education of our children.

God bless public schools! Let freedom ring! It is the fertile earth of a democracy and true equality. Everyone should send their kids to public schools and invest their money and time making them the best they can be. It’s our one shot at a level playing field in this country.

God Bless his Father, for keeping his emotions, though how hard that was for him (his mother, and Grandparents, etc).And God Bless the new school and Administrators for accepting most of all, and enrolling the young man....

That is such good news! And now he can wear his cool spider-man shirt instead of a uniform. Good for his parents taking care of business! Wish I could congratulate them.

Thank you for posting this update. Schools need to stop tearing down kids over their appearance. His hair is part of who he is and he shouldn’t have to change that to get an education.

And yes, it’s terrible the kid wasn’t able to attend school but if the father read the rules he would have seen that before he sent his child

He prob saw the video of the kid with hair past his ears and thought no problem. But didn't realize the school only let's white kids do that

It’s a private school? He has to abide by he rules??? I went to private school and we couldn’t have facial hair, hair past our ears, or anything that wasn’t in the rules.... go to a public school and wear whatever you want... little white bits also cannot have long hair.

Sounds like he is in a better school. They would have likely been prejudice against him all year. Good job Dad staying cool and finding a school with heart.
